‘Breaking the Law’ Exclusive: President Trump Warns Rampant Judge-Shopping Is the Left’s ‘Final Weapon’ That Could ‘Take Down America’:
In a piece published yesterday, I documented how anti-Trump activist Judge James Boasberg was assigned a series of “Trump cases” in the early weeks of the second Trump administration. He then blocked and stalled part of the president’s first wave agenda.
So, how did one left-wing judge get assigned so many sensitive cases? Part of the answer is the legal tactic known as “judge-shopping,” which was patented by lawfare general and activist attorney Marc Elias.
In an exclusive interview I conducted as part of my research for Breaking the Law, President Trump has called out the practice and warned that “judge-shopping is rampant at levels never seen before. You know the outcome of a case as soon as the judge is picked.”
“And the radical left is using this, their final weapon, to take down America,” the president told me.
Judge-shopping is a straightforward idea: A politically interested party will bring a case to a court with mostly favorable judges to make it likely they get their desired outcome. For example, some courts have only one judge, so it can be easy to anticipate how a judge will rule if you bring the case to that judge’s court. Other powerful courts, such as the D.C. District Court, is composed of mostly of judges who appear to be ideologically on the left. The venue rules for federal cases (28 U.S.C. § 1391) make it so that virtually every case brought against the federal government can be filed in that court since it is often where the defendant resides or where the relevant events occurred.
Breitbart News Senior Contributor Peter Schweizer credits Marc Elias, a high priest of lawfare if there ever was one, with popularizing the venue-shopping tactic. According to Schweizer, Elias was able to swing the highly contested 2008 Minnesota senate race for Democrat Al Franken over Republican Norm Coleman by finding a specific court to legitimize over a thousand ballots that had previously been rejected because they had potentially been cast by convicted felons.
The recount and trial lasted six months, the longest re-count in American history; and in the end, the former Saturday Night Live actor won a narrow victory. According to Schweizer, Elias engineered this feat by venue-shopping for a favorable court. A subsequent study suggested that many felons did in fact illegally vote in the race, which may well have tipped the election to Franken. That race gave the Democrats a filibuster-proof 60-vote majority in the Senate, which allowed then-President Obama to pass enormous pieces of legislation such as Obamacare. --->READ MORE HERE
Marlow: Investigation Season—Lawfare Judge Boasberg’s Russiagate Connection Revealed:
United States District Court for the District of Columbia Chief Judge James Boasberg is well known to this audience for ordering illegal aliens to remain in the United States despite the Trump administrations clearly lawful effort to deport them under the Aliens Enemies Act.
Yet, he also has an important connection to the Russiagate hoax that reveals the scope of the lawfare superstructure that is trying to dismantle MAGA, which I document in my book Breaking the Law.
Just like the rest of the Russiagate conspirators, Boasberg ought to be investigated for it.
In March of 2025, after the ACLU and the Soros-linked legal advocacy group Democracy Forward filed suits on behalf of five Venezuelans destined for deportation, Boasberg ordered “any plane containing these folks that is going to take off or is in the air needs to be returned to the United States.”
Boasberg accused Trump of “possible defiance” of the court order, inflaming national debate. Trump did nothing of the sort. The illegal aliens were long out of the country by the time Boasberg gave the order, and Boasberg has no jurisdiction in El Salvador.
Boasberg was waging an attack on the democratically elected president of the United States to try to preserve non-existent rights for illegal alien gang members, treating Donald Trump as the real criminal.
This should not be a surprise considering that Boasberg, who was appointed by Obama in 2010, is known for left-wing rulings and bias against President Trump. This includes his connection to the Russia collusion hoax. --->READ MORE HERE
